Abstract: Our computations show that there is a total of $40$ pairs of degree six coprime polynomials $f,g$ where $f(x)=(x-1{)}^6$, $g$ is a product of cyclotomic polynomials, $g(0)=1$ and $f,g$ form a primitive pair. The aim of this article is to determine whether the corresponding $40$ symplectic hypergeometric groups with a maximally unipotent monodromy follow the same dichotomy between arithmeticity and thinness that holds for the $14$ symplectic hypergeometric groups corresponding to the pairs of degree four polynomials $f,g$ where $f(x)=(x-1{)}^4$ and $g$ is as described above. As a result we prove that at least $18$ of these $40$ groups are arithmetic in $mathrmSp(6)$. In addition, we extend our search to all degree six symplectic hypergeometric groups. We find that there is a total of $458$ pairs of polynomials (up to scalar shifts) corresponding to such groups. For $211$ of them, the absolute values of the leading coefficients of the difference polynomials $f-g$ are at most $2$ and the arithmeticity of the corresponding groups follows from Singh and Venkataramana, while the arithmeticity of one more hypergeometric group follows from Detinko, Flannery and Hulpke. In this article, we show the arithmeticity of $160$ of the remaining $246$ hypergeometric groups.
